  • Currently, butt - 39", thighs - 22" (with a 28" waist and A-cups... basically I'm the definition of a pear shape!). I'm 5'8. I get my thighs from my dad (he's a rugby player!) so they're pretty muscly and I know they'll always be proportionally big-ish no matter how much weight I lose. And that's fine, because I do…

  • This is true. You get so much variety in a Graze box but all in individual portions - for me, trying to buy the same things at the supermarket would involve a lot of waste as I'd have to buy my eight different snacks in large bags and would never be able to eat them all before they went off or got stale. Plus Graze snacks…

  • I've been getting two boxes a week for a few months. What I do is take one Graze punnet plus a fresh fruit snack to work each day, one of which is for my mid-morning snack and one for the afternoon. I've been trying all kinds of things - my favourites are the Guilt-Free High Teas (a mini cake and a nice tea), Apricot…

  • I'm 36-27-38 (though actually quite flat-chested - A cups!) and for me dresses that fit at the waist and flare out in the skirt are the perfect solution as they fit and balance my proportions.

  • You could maybe try a few minutes of marching on the spot before doing Jillian's warm up? If you swing your arms and bring your knees up high this is a good, low-impact full-body warm-up. :)

  • I did my first day of 30DS yesterday, and I am sore today! My legs and tummy are fine but my arms and back, ouch... I'm planning on doing my second session later on today though - I'm determined (and impatient!) to see results ASAP. Good luck to everyone else taking part in a June shred!
